Is this a voice test? What is this

[erikano300]

[It knows how and why it got here, question is, does the mun know? The answer is a definite 'maybe'. Mun only partially understands it anyway, but that's okay.

Angels are occasionally difficult to translate.

Especially when they seem to speak in mostly musical chimes and gestures. Old Woman Josie understands it just fine, it's the mun's fault they aren't Chosen By God.

It seems terribly interested in the strange, nebulous, poorly defined area it has found itself in, playing with the threads on the furniture before hovering around near what appears to be an old 1950's radio.

It's about time for its favorite show to come on. Even if the host likes to deny its existence every now and again.]

Comments

[nowtheweather]

[Now don't blame her, it's not her regulation that declares that you don't exist, angel who she's certainly not acknowledging the existence of in any way.

You'll have to submit a complaint to the City Council about that, but while every complaint is given fair consideration, it's doubtful anything will change, at least quickly. The beauracratic wheel turns slow, grinding along at a glacial pace after all.]

[erikano300]

[Excuse it, it gives you information so very often. Don't deny it's been informing you and your other universe male counterpart about the goings on of the town.

It knows.

It's also hovering very close, seeing how long its existence can be denied when it's radiating holy light all over your face]

[nowtheweather]

[And she does appreciate that.

Remember the card she sent last holiday? The candygram?

And really, she doesn't want another stint in reeducation, surely you understand, radiant being that really ow, that's bright. Inconsiderate that's what that is, what if she'd had her eyes dilated by a optometrist today?]

[erikano300]

[You could, at the very least, attempt to look it in one of it's pairs of eyes. It has several, just pick a pair.

It chimes, delicately, before fluffing its many wings and extending a skinny hand, gently trying to prod her face.

Hey. Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeey.]

[nowtheweather]

[Hey hey hey with the touching, that's not kosher. Cecilia leans back to avoid it because excuse you.

But fine, fine, she'll make eye contact. Happy now?

Plausible deniability ruined.]

Well aren't you persistent?

[erikano300]

[There we go. It got what it wanted. It chimes again, very happy to be acknowledged. You know, once upon a time, people actually looked at it and quaked in fear and all that kind of stuff.

Acknowledgement.

It doesn't have a mouth so it can't smile, but it wiggles its fingers at her pleasantly.

Hello again]

[nowtheweather]

[Must get boring without constant terror-driven adulation, huh?

She'll just raise a hand to give a little wave back. Just because she had to deny it's existence in her show doesn't means she has to be rude.]

Afternoon!

[erikano300]

[It would like to think that it's not that terrifying but... yes it does get dull after a while when it isn't praised every time it shows up and people instead shuffle by it without looking at it.

I have news of The Forest!

Thank God Cecilia and Cecil are two of the few that know what it's saying.]

[nowtheweather]

[No, you're almost kind of adorable! Maybe people are just terrified of the implications of your existence. The fact that if you're real, well...

They've got a lot to answer for don't they?

Of course that unspoken news gets her attention and whoops out comes the notepad where'd that come from?]

Really? Well that's fantastic, what's new with the Forest these days?

[erikano300]

[It moved towards the city by five feet and sings snippets of show-tunes starting at five PM.

It also knows most of the Broadway play Wicked.

It likes the forest. Mostly because the forest has no effect on it and it can just wander through and see if it recognizes anyone.

Also there is a tree that looks just like Tony Danza.]

[nowtheweather]

[She's just going to be jotting all of this down, nodding as she did.]

My goodness! Well that'll definitely make for an interesting tidbit!

[erikano300]

[And it totally knows what Tony Danza looks like. It thinks. He's fat isn't he? Well he is now.

Also the Black Angel helps Old Woman Josie cheat at BINGO. I know, I saw them do it. But it's okay, it was only the fifty dollar pot..]

[nowtheweather]

Well, I suppose it's alright so long as it's just that pot. We both know things turn ugly when cheating gets above the hundred dollar pot. Remember that riot last summer?

[erikano300]

[I do. They set the whole hall on fire and sacrificed Henry from down the road to Xyblelb.

I hope that doesn't happen again this year, but in their defense, Henry was stealing chips.]

[nowtheweather]

Well with an example like that, I'm sure that we'll avoid another incident this year. I mean that was just the hundred pot, goodness knows what'll happen if anyone tries anything funny with the higher ones.

Hmm... maybe I should include a psa in the evening's announcements, just to be on the safe side.

[erikano300]

[Remind them not to steal chips! Also beware the third seat from the left in the front row.

It's cursed. It's true. Moving it won't fix it, the curse will just switch chairs.]

[nowtheweather]

Oh you're exactly right! We've been getting reports of a lot more of our seniors being cursed lately, maybe a safety announcement wouldn't be amiss.

[erikano300]

[Thank you.

It definitely seems pleased, fanning all six of its wings out and settling them again, the musical chiming that is its technical voice dimming out a little bit.

My mun wants to put me somewhere, but she doesn't think anywhere will take me. I guess I'm not.... 'pivotal' enough.]

[nowtheweather]

Well there's lots of those... dressing room type places? They won't judge whether you're 'pivotal' or not. My mun's a bit fussed because apparently 'au's aren't always easy to play, especially if it's just a gender swap.

And really I take offense! Why am I the alternate? What if I'm the original? I really feel I should be posting some sort of official complaint, don't you?

[erikano300]

[Maybe. She has a few in a dressing room already, but she's worried about over-saturation.

Well, I'm not supposed to tell you, but the you that everyone hears on the other side of the wall is a man. It's true.

I'm not supposed to tell you that though. Confidential inter-spacial cross universe information. Don't tell anyone.]

[nowtheweather]

Always confidential, why would I tattle on my best source? [Compliments never hurt things!]

[erikano300]

[Technically it's also supposed to be humble, but it likes being complimented, so it fluffs its wings again and looks unduly flattered.

Are you in a 'dressing room'?]

[nowtheweather]

Not yet. Mine's debating if she wants to send me anywhere, she's so indecisive lately! But I suppose some of that can be blamed on upcoming festivities and all.

[erikano300]

[Oh. Halloween?

The local graveyard is going to be unknowable for Halloween. Don't try looking for it.

It's best not to know where it went.]

[nowtheweather]

Better than the morgue last year. That was rather inconvenient for the Sherrif's forces now wasn't it?

[erikano300]

[Poor Sheriff. He tried really hard to make it come back, but screaming into a bullhorn at a fizzling black mass where a building used to be is never the answer.

But at least it came back the next day.

It's okay if only a few bodies were unaccounted for. Best not to think about it.]

[nowtheweather]

Not like mysteriously vanishing bodies are anything new. If anything the Sheriff should be happy. Less work for him after all.

[erikano300]

[I don't think he was too upset about that. It was the bodies that came back semi-alive that were the problem.

But they took care of that, and I'm almost one hundred percent sure that won't happen again this year.]

[nowtheweather]

Well, 'tis the season for spooky happenings anyways. Maybe they'll be amicable to walking in the holiday parade!

[erikano300]

[I'm going to be in the parade. In the back. Old Woman Josie is dressing up as a witch. I got cat ears to wear.

The Black Angel is going to wear white ears. I told them not to and that it won't match, but they wanted to be a white cat.]

[nowtheweather]

Tell them to try rolling around in some flour, then it'll match!

[But make sure it's a non-wheat flour, just to be on the safe side.]

[erikano300]

[Or maybe baby powder. That sounds less dangerous.

Or we could just paint them.]

[nowtheweather]

Paint would probably be the best option, then they won't be leaving a mess everywhere.

[erikano300]

[I'm sure they won't object to a little bit of paint. Then they can be a white cat just like they want to.]

[nowtheweather]

Who knows you might even be able to find a tail for them. Might as well go all out, right?

[erikano300]

[Well... Old Woman Josie does have a white bathrobe. We can just borrow the tie from that.]

[nowtheweather]

That works just perfectly. They'll be the very picture of a white cat.

Now if only I could decide what I want to be.

[erikano300]

[You should go as a Cloaked Figure.]
